With the Midwest emerging as a talent powerhouse for the class of 2023, there’s no better place to look to the future. We will feature these talented freshmen and sophomores over a four part series.
Marcus Pigram Marcus Pigram 6'3" | SG Whitney Young | 2023 State IL | Top 40
Standing at 6-3 Pigram displays the size and ability to play either guard spot. He has a tight handle that allows him to create offense for himself and others. Hits the midrange jumper and has nice touch on his floater.
Blaise Porter | Top 40
The Iowa native continues to dazzle with his playmaking and handle. Porter’s smooth play landed him a Division 1 offer from Bryant University.
Owen Freeman Owen Freeman 6'10" | C Moline | 2023 State #179 Nation IL | Top 30
The 6-9 sophomore is a mobile big that flashes ball skills in the flow of the game. He rebounds well for his size, is developing post moves, but life on the block may not be all that’s in the future of the Illinois offer holder.
Donaven Younger Donaven Younger 6'8" | C Bolingbrook | 2023 State IL | Top 30
Can attack off the dribble as a 6-8 power forward. He stretched the floor in pool play, shooting in the low 30 through three games. Shows a nice handle in space along with good passing instincts.
Maki Johnson | Top 30
Johnson’s feel for the game and ball skills are polished for any combo guard, let alone one with just one year of varsity under his belt. Johnson is a pinpoint passer in transition and displays court vision in the half court. A good shooter with some creation ability but shoots a high percentage on catch and shoot opportunities.
Baye Fall | Top 30
Fall is our number 3 recruit in the class of 2023 for a reason. He’s a slender sit 6-10 forward with wide shoulders and runs like a wing in transition. He bangs in the post and hits the turnaround jumper at the elbow with consistency. He’s a good athlete, helping him throw down big dunks and protect the rim. One of the best frames in all of prep hoops.
Curtis Williams | Top 30
Big physical wing prospect that can hit the three several ways. Creates his shot thanks to size when driving and handle when pulling up. Hit corner threes and a pull up threes. Played hard against his matchup with Baye Fall, hitting shots and battling on the boards against the near 7 footer.
Ariyon Reuben
Reuben may have been one of the most exciting live ball creators in attendance. He’s adept at scoring off the dribble as a 6-4 combo guard. Displays good court vision in the half court.
Sam Lewis Sam Lewis 6'5" | SF Oak Park River Forest | 2023 State IL | Top 30
Lewis brings the size to roam around the perimeter and the handle to be a good playmaker. The 6-5 combo guard uses his athleticism to secure rebounds and defend multiple positions.
